The Tejada trade has worked out really well for both teams. Scott has obviously been raking, Sarfate is my boy, and Albers has pitched really nice out of the bullpen when we need an inning or 2. Not to mention, Patton, who was the "gem" of the trade, should be good to go next year. When the trade went down, I read that a lot of Astro fans were pretty pissed that they included Patton in the trade even with an injury that needed to be fixed.....he should be a nice number 2 or 3 at least.

Last year they wanted Miggy in a package built around Adam Everett.....pukes.

But yeah, Houston has needed a shortstop forever.

I've always like the Astros.....one of my 4 or 5 other teams I like to see win.
